Death… And Me

Chapter 1457 - Kibin Race

Chapter 1457 - Kibin Race

The twins then began to think about it as Sharky led the way. Back then, Timoteo had some form of controlling the whale. However, how did he do that? "Can you think about something that can attract a multi-elemental spirit?"

Everyone shook their heads in response. First of all, where would one find multi-elemental beings? Even the twins weren't like that. However, they quickly noticed that Luan seemed to be playing with that bird-fish he had just mentioned. "Luan, how did you attract the bird-fish swimming around you?"

Luan shook his head, telling them, "I didn't. It simply looked at me for a moment, and then it began to swim around me. That was all."

Falangia, who was hearing everything, then wondered, "Could it be that these invisible bird-fishes only answer to those who can see them?"

The twins had to admit Falangia's words made sense. Following that, Roan used his Divine Soul Power to grab Luan before asking, "Tell me when there's a fish passing close to you."

Luan nodded and warned Roan as soon as one got close. "Alright, I'll put you in front of it, so look straight at its eyes." Without wasting time, Roan used his Divine Soul Power to move Luan in front of the bird-fish.

The bird-fish and Luan soon made eye contact. After that, it began to swim by the side, but it still looked at Luan as if testing whether Luan was really looking at it or not. Luan, obviously, followed it with his eyes. Eventually, the bird-fish confirmed that Luan could really see it and began to swim around him soon after. "Hey, it worked. Now both bird-fishes are swimming around me."

Rean and Roan looked at each other and nodded, saying, "Good. Roan will put you in front of many more, so make sure to look at them."

However, Luan seemed to be a little afraid. "I... I think that isn't a good idea."

"Why is that?" Everyone asked back.

"I don't know what I did, but there are a lot of them heading my way right now." In Luan's eyes, it seemed like the two bird-fishes he had around him caught the attention of the others. Luan then became a beacon that gathered the multiple bird-fishes in their surroundings, all swimming around him.

"Luan, keep telling us everything you can see," Roan told him.

Luan nodded in response. "They seemed to be gathering around me nonstop. I can't count them... I'm afraid, dad!"

Roan narrowed his eyes when he heard that. "I'm not your dad."

However, Luan was too afraid to consider that point. "Dad, pull me back. I'm scared! They'll eat me!"

Roan sighed before pulling Luan back close to him, soon increasing the power of his protective barrier. He also added Dark Element, even though it wouldn't be of much use since the bird-fishes also had Dark Element inside them.

"Dad... they stopped." Surprisingly though, the bird-fishes didn't continue to swim around Luan. "Dad, they're gathering..."

Rean and the others immediately asked. "Where?"

"In front of us," Luan answered, now feeling a little safer in Roan's arms.

Roan nodded, not minding it. "Keep telling us what's ha-" However, Roan didn't need to conclude that phrase. That's because the bird-fish gathering seemed to create a phenomenon in front of their group. All the elements gathered, and so did the continental barrier's Divine Energy. Even they could see it now due to the amount of it.

The twins' group increased their guard even more since the power at the location ahead was definitely terrifying. Even Kentucky wouldn't be able to resist if all those elements and Divine Energy were used in an attack. However, after a few seconds, it stopped. It's just that everyone could still see what was happening. "What kind of spirit is this one?"

Rean couldn't help but remember the Kiwi back on Earth, a type of bird that couldn't fly and had a thin but long beak. However, that was only half of its body. The other half was akin to a fish... well, to be more specific, it followed the whales' and dolphins' patterns. The tail was horizontal, not vertical.

As for why they could see that spirit, the twins already knew the answer. 'Spirits are invisible as long as they wish to be invisible. However, if they want to appear in front of others, they can do that. Obviously, this... thing... wanted us to see it.'

Roan was right. As soon as the bird-fish, if one could even call it that, appeared in front of everyone, it used Divine Sense to communicate. 'I didn't expect that someone would be able to see me. However, those are some very peculiar couple of eyes, kid. Are you perhaps part of the Sacred Eye Race?'

Luan didn't know what the bird-fish was talking about. "What is the Sacred Eye Race?"

The twins also have never heard about it. "Hey, how come you have sentience? We've seen another type of spirit inside the continental barrier before, but it didn't have any intelligence. Also, what are you exactly? No, wait! Maybe this isn't even your home. Perhaps you decided to live here, but you have nothing to do with the continental barrier."

The Kiwi thing narrowed its eyes as it looked at the twins, especially Roan, who held Luan. "Don't compare me to such a low-level creature. What you saw was probably a Rainbow Whale, and they do live in continental barriers. However, my Kibin Spirit Race is several times stronger. Those Rainbow Whales rarely get strong enough to acquire sentience. Unlike us, who are already born with it."

Rean nodded in response. "So you are a spirit that lives in the continental barriers."

"Correct," answered the Kibin. "You haven't answered my question, though."

Roan answered it for Luan, saying, "We don't know which race my disciple is from. His parents are dead, so we can't even ask. However, he's most likely a mixed blood."

The Kibin nodded in response. "I see... I can't feel much of the Sacred Eye Race bloodline inside his body anyway. You're most likely right about the mixed blood."

After that, Rean asked the question in everyone's minds. "So.... why did you decide to appear in front of us?"
